I liked to lay on my stomach and hang my ...read more

    “Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, ‘Peace, be still!’ And the wind ceased and there was a great calm. But He said to them, ‘Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith?’ And they feared exceedingly, and said to one anot

    Theme: The Lord of the storm Text: Job 38:1-11; 2 Cor. 6:1-13; Mk. 4:35-41 No human being can live without faith in someone or something. The difference between the Christian and the unsaved person is not that one has faith and the other does not. They both have faith. The difference between the ...read more

     | 18,191 views

    There are times we are tempted to accuse God of negligence in the way he runs our lives. But God reminds us that we can trust him.

    JOB 38:1-11 QUESTIONING GOD I was talking to a friend of mine the other day, who is also a pastor, and he was describing to me one of his members. “This member is a modern-day Job,” he told me. Why do you think he described one of his members as a “modern-day Job”? I’m sure it’s because of all ...read more

    A first-person narrative. When in our suffering we challenge the Lord like Job did, he works repentance in us so that we stand dumbfounded at his wisdom and power and stand astounded at his promise of grace.

    Who Dares to Question the Lord Good Morning. I thank you for this opportunity to speak to you. My name is Job. I realize that because of the way it is spelled in English, you would usually pronounce it “job.” But it is Job. Please allow me to give you a little bit of background about myself. I ...read more

    Declare If You Know Series

    The Palm Sunday crowds, like Job’s friends, shouted their slogans too glibly, communicating only popularity and prejudice, substituting religiosity and mere activity for knowing Jesus personally.

    Declare if you know. Declare. Interesting word, “Declare”. It suggests that when we communicate, there are a variety of levels at which we can speak. There are different intensities we can use when we want to say something. Some folks merely suggest. They offer timid little ideas ...read more

    Lookign at questions in the context of Job 38, and Jesus stilling the storm in Mark 4

    One of the most unhelpful ideas about Christianity, indeed about faith in general, is that doubt is the opposite of faith. It is not. Certainty is the opposite of faith. Doubt is an intrinsic part of faith, for by definition faith is about making a commitment and a decision about matters that ...read more
